The beloved sitcom Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah seems to be facing its own dramatic twists, but this time it¡¯s behind the scenes.

Dilip Joshi, however, isn¡¯t letting these rumours tarnish his dedication. In a recent interview, Joshi emphatically dismissed claims of any conflict with Modi. "There have been some stories in the media about me and Asit Bhai that are completely false," he told Times Now. The actor further expressed his disappointment, noting that these rumours not only hurt the team but also dampen the spirits of the show¡¯s loyal fans.

Joshi, who has been a cornerstone of the series for years, also addressed speculation about his departure. "Earlier, there were rumours about me leaving the show, which were completely baseless. And now, it feels like there¡¯s always a new story trying to defame the show. Let me be clear: I¡¯m here, working with love and passion, and I¡¯m not going anywhere," he said.

While the actors stand united, fans have mixed reactions. Some long-time viewers feel the show has lost its charm, describing recent seasons as repetitive and cringeworthy. Others remain fiercely loyal, appreciating the show¡¯s continued efforts to entertain despite its challenges.

The ongoing drama has only intensified debates about whether it¡¯s time for TMKOC to gracefully bow out or reinvent itself. Yet, for now, Joshi remains steadfast, determined to keep Jethalal¡¯s antics alive. ¡°It¡¯s disheartening to see negativity about something that has brought so much joy,¡± he said, defending the legacy of one of India¡¯s longest-running sitcoms.
